• Review all clients to homogeneize strings

Does this issue also relate to adding keyboard accelerators? eg. _Cancel can be accessed with Alt+C?

Suggestions for strings in Setting > General tab

1. Rename Enable desktop notifications to Show notifications
desktop seems superfluous, seems to have the same meaning without and seems easier to translate
   Homogenize string with iOS and Android as the concept of desktop doesn't seem to work well on smartphones/tablets

   https://transvision.mozfr.org/?recherche=Show+notifications&repo=gecko_strings&sourcelocale=en-US&locale=hu&search_type=strings

2. Rename Downloads directory to Download directory

   https://transvision.mozfr.org/?recherche=download+directory&repo=gecko_strings&sourcelocale=en-US&locale=hu&search_type=strings

3. Rename heading Chatview to Chat
   Chatview might be an internal name for the chat component; however, is there a difference between Chat and Chatview settings for the Jami operator? It also seems easier to correctly translate into other languages.
   https://transvision.mozfr.org/?recherche=Chat&repo=gecko_strings&sourcelocale=en-US&locale=hu&search_type=strings&entire_string=entire_string
   https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/language/Search?&searchTerm=chat&langID=382&Source=true&productid=0
   https://l10n.kde.org/dictionary/search-translations.php?package=&filename=&teamcode=hu&search=Chat&submitted=Search

4. What does Enable typing indicators do? If disabled, does it only stop typing indicators being sent Show when I am typing or does it also stop typing indicators from being shown coming in Typing indicator?
   https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/language/Search?&searchTerm=Show%20when%20I%20am%20typing&langID=382&Source=true&productid=undefined
   https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/language/Search?&searchTerm=typing%20indicator&langID=382&Source=true&productid=undefined

5. Rename Display hyperlink views in the chatview to Show link previews
   Analogy Print Preview, with the p lowercase for consistency with Jami convention
   in the chatview seems superfluous as it is under the heading Chatview
   https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/language/Search?&searchTerm=Show%20link%20previews&langID=382&Source=true&productid=undefined

What do you think?

Thank you

For "What does Enable typing indicators do? If disabled, does it only stop typing indicators being sent Show when I am typing or does it also stop typing indicators from being shown coming in Typing indicator?"

It's for both side, you don't see when others are typing and you don't send the information

2/3/5 in review

Suggestions for default settings in Setting > General tab > System section

1. Enable dark theme = true
2. Launch at startup = true

What do you think?

Thank you

1. In fact it should be decided by the system and changed in consequence
2. Applications should not automatically set launching by default

So I disagree

1. Perhaps a drop-down with options, instead of the toggle? Or options like System theme, Light, Dark like the inspiration from Firefox shown in the image below.
   

@ovari thanks for the the all suggestions. This is a topic discussed and put on the roadmap. We will think more deeply about it in near future and then I will respond to you with more details. Thanks!

Mehdi Ghayour is not in the team anymore, I will take care of this

Tried unsuccessfully to put the file below on RJN (review.jami.net) using notes to self listed at jami-client-gnome#795 (closed).

JamiStrings.qml

1. Is this something that your team could use?
2. Should keyboard accelerators be added to the file (_ or &)? Eg. property string copy: qsTr("_Copy")
3. Should strings have more Uppercase letters? Similar to LibreOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird, GIMP. There are Style Guides at http://fgouget.free.fr/wine-po/.
4. Should more ellipses … be added? To indicate that a popup/dialog/another user action is required before the selection will be done (hence it can be canceled)?
5. Tried to remove first-person (me/you) from strings where someone other than the end-user might be doing that instruction.

Thank you

2. _ or & will not work in QML

2. Unfortuately, the autoaccelerator doesn't seem to be showing for Remove button.

Which one? Seems ok for me

For JamiStrings.qml, a diff will be better to get the difference as it's updated a lot

also elliding should be automatically managed in the UI

Remove button autoaccelerator not showing in image below.

oh. There is indeed nothing shown (yet), but alt+R/C should work on this window

The Share windows don't have autoaccelerators showing either, for example the window share

As I said, there is no graphical changes, but Alt+S and Alt+C are working

6. There seems to be full-stops missing from some strings; however, could not locate where the strings are.
7. Should account settings be Account Settings?
   
8. Should its be it is?
   
9. Should Tips be Tip as it is a singular tip?
   
10. (a) Should you're (you are) be your (or reworded so first-person is removed)
    (b) Should loose be lose?
    (c) Should datas be data (as data is a noun plural)
    (c) Should the sentence end with a full-stop?
    

Thank you

7/8/9/10 done for client-qt https://review.jami.net/c/jami-client-qt/+/22293

Will check all strings, but just to answer for review.jami.net: https://docs.jami.net/developer/working-with-gerrit.html should help

added SprintIn progress label

mentioned in commit jami-client-qt@a95386e5

Can the following please be implemented in this issue:

1. Remove spaces before and after the +
2. As Jami and GIMP are GNU software, prefer:
   a) Delete (not Del) (However, having Del is better for small screens)
   b) Escape (not Esc) (However, having Esc is better for small screens)
   c) Shift+Ctrl+ (not Ctrl+Shift+) (However, muscle memory for Windows users would prefer Ctrl+Shift+)

Firefox uses Del and the order Ctrl+Shift+

GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP) uses Delete and the order Shift+Ctrl+

LibreOffice uses Shift+Ctrl+

1. Keyboard Shortcut Table, General

• Ctrl + J → Ctrl+J
• Ctrl + L → Ctrl+L
• Ctrl + R → Ctrl+R
• Ctrl + ↑ → Ctrl+↑
• Ctrl + ↓ → Ctrl+↓
• Ctrl + F → Ctrl+F

2. Keyboard Shortcut Table, Conversation

• Ctrl + Shift + C → Shift+Ctrl+C
• Ctrl + Shift + X → Shift+Ctrl+X
• Ctrl + Shift + L → Shift+Ctrl+L
• Ctrl + Shift + B → Shift+Ctrl+B
• Ctrl + Shift + Delete → Shift+Ctrl+Delete
• Shift + Ctrl + A → Shift+Ctrl+A

3. Keyboard Shortcut Table, Call

• Ctrl + Y → Ctrl+Y
• Ctrl + D → Ctrl+D
• Ctrl + Shift + D → Shift+Ctrl+D

4. Keyboard Shortcut Table, Settings

• Ctrl + M → Ctrl+M
• Ctrl + G → Ctrl+G
• Ctrl + I → Ctrl+I
• Ctrl + P → Ctrl+P (Should this be Shift+Ctrl+P as Ctrl+P refers to Print?)
• Ctrl + Shift + N → Shift+Ctrl+N

What do you think?

Thank you

@nvengeon can you please implement the improvements shown above to the Keyboard Shortcuts Table?

That is:

1. remove spaces before and after the +
2. consistent order of Shift+Ctrl+
3. Can the window title be changed from Keyboard Shortcut Table to Keyboard Shortcuts? i.e. an s is added to Shortcut and Table is removed.

What do you think?

Thank you

Should Hide audio-only participants → Hide spectators jami-client-qt#822 (closed) be part of this Unify terminology issue? Thank you

it's ok to leave the issue in client-qt

Can the en source strings Quit conversation please be changed to Leave conversation?

https://www.transifex.com/savoirfairelinux/jami/translate/#hu/$/443014455?q=text%3A'quit+conversation'

Thank you

added BacklogHigh label

removed SprintIn progress label

I remove this from the iteration as not active.

But we really need to find a method to have a common entry for strings across all clients to homogeneize what is possible!
